– “How A Resurrection Really Feels” by The Hold Steady (via heronqueenblues)
Stephen: Oddly enough, "sauros" was ancient Greek slang for "penis". "Sauros" means "lizard", and they would call it your "lizard". Your knob. Just thought you'd like to know that.
Alan: Why is "thesaurus", then? Is that Latin?
Stephen: That's a different word. "Thesaurus" means a "treasure house" or "repository". In this case, a treasure house of words.
Alan: So you might refer to your backside as a "thesaurus".
Stephen: I'd like to think my bottom is a treasure house, yes, Alan.
Alan: "My bottom is a treasure house" is a really good catch phrase.

Birth of second rare white kiwi 'remarkable' →
usedcarsalesman:
A white Christmas is being celebrated at a Wairarapa wildlife centre, after the birth of a second rare pure white kiwi.
The rare chick hatched last Sunday in Pukaha Mount Bruce’s kiwi nursery, where Manukura – the world’s first white kiwi hatched in captivity – arrived in May.
Centre manager Kathy Houkamau said staff were “gob-smacked” by the Christmas miracle.

I’m looking at you, people that think schizophrenia has anything to do with “split personalities”.

Any ideas on how to subtly tell my boyfriend I want a promise ring? He’s already said he wants to propose, but wants to wait until we’re in a more financially stable place and have graduated.
I just want something physical to show people (mother dearest) how much we really mean.
I don’t want to ask outright, but subtle hints?
First day on holiday with my boyfriend - amazing.
First night - phone NHS direct, get an ambulance, go to hospital, get more meds.
Second day - sleep.
